Roller coasters are a distinctive product of our American culture, reflecting our desire for ecstatic experiences, as well as symbolizing the energy and complexity of our lives. This series unites the Modernist ideal of form following function, i.e. roller coasters are visually fascinating structures even though they are simply built to transport passengers; with the Post-Modernist absurdity of the controlled-fear catharsis inherent in thrill rides.
Ever‑changing images flash by, simulating the experience of traveling the full length of a roller coaster in a single instant. Being hurled through space, repeating tracks and fragmented structures flash by. A journey that mimics the cyclical nature of time . . . you might as well just sit back, hold tight, and enjoy the ride while it lasts.
